Caol Ila is a modern and imposing looking across the Sound of Islay, it was originally built in 1846, rebuilt in 1879 then again in 1972 - 74 when the number of stills was increased from two to six. Built for, and mainly used for, producing whisky for blending there are some distillery bottlings of single malt.

Welcome to Arkwrights

Whisky is our passion and for some years it's been our business as well. Available from both our whisky shop in Wiltshire and our online shop is a superb range of single malt whiskies, wines, spirits and beers from around the world.
